Mario in coverage.

I'll tell you what: one of the few late season silver linings this year has been Gillislee.

Late hit?

Looks like the defense is really coming together in week 16, yeah?

Manny Lawson split out wide in coverage.

Did anyone think we'd stop them on third down?

Mario mailing it in again.

Did anyone think we'd stop them on 3rd down?

Boooooooooo!!!!

I think he could handle the role well in a 4i, though not quite as well in a 5. And while he doesn't have ideal length, I think his push makes up for that to a degree. I certainly agree that he's at his best in a 3, however.

If they sign Ngata, Kyle and Dareus both bump out to 2 gap ends, Dareus on the strong side.

Turns out subsidized health insurance doesn't increase personal responsibility after all.

I see that you don't own a thesaurus.

Those words are synonyms.

Leave him alone. I'm pretty sure he's Asian.

Merry Christmas.

They're working with a 78% success rate, which means a 22% rate of failure in their forced labor standards.

No, we've reach the point in the conversation where you apparently insist that people who show up for the sole purpose of attacking the character of others should be shown courtesy and deference, and then draw false equivalence. People who lead into the conversation with punches deserve to be punched back, and you're being intellectually dishonest again.

There's no way those could be interpreted as sarcastic and snarky, and directed at one particularly lousy drive by poster, given that they directly followed that post, and borrowed, in a very exact way, from her own post's structure?

The issue is that you've shown up for what was otherwise actually a reasonably civil conversation about slavery, it's legacy, the legacy of various prominent individuals involved in US slavery, and various moral positions associated; and all you've done is accuse others racism and intellectual dishonesty because they disagreed with you or asked you to clarify or refine your position. In short: you showed up and took a great big **** on this thread, and all of it's participants. It's not that you showed up for a knife fight with a knife rather than a pen; it's that you showed up for a civil discussion with vitriol, obtuseness, and othering.

So we've reached the point in the conversation where you blame everyone else for your own words?

And how do we replace him? As Trapasso points out, churning through coaches, and rethinking hires after investing so much in them not even a year prior is not a very productive way of luring new coaching talent.

That's the best political piece I've seen in years.

birdog, and those like him, are precisely the reason that the national conversation in this country has become shrill, and the sides so polarized. You can't have a productive conversation with anyone who says "If you disagree with me, you're a racist." On your best day, you ignore everything that individual has to say, and on your worst, you punch him in the mouth. What you never do, however, is continue the conversation.

The Thigpen carousel continues to spin.
